You guys know that I don’t think that Simon Stuart is really human. Instead, I think he is some kind of android, sent here from the future to code something (in Delphi) that we need to save the world, and he's just biding his time writing things for us in the Delphi community. Simon has produced a prodigious amount of cool stuff for us Delphi developers, and is a tireless community member. It doesn’t seem like too much to ask to help him release Lua4Delphi before Christmas. I made a modest donation.

We homeschool our kids, and my wife came to me showing me the stuff for the starting school year. It presented an interesting choice: All things being equal, should our kids spend their time learning to write cursive, or to touch type? I voted for touch typing. It occurred to me that I can’t remember the last time I wrote anything more than a note on a ToDo list. I almost never write letters or anything involving using a pen or a pencil for extended periods. And even when I do, I don’t write in cursive. But I’ll tell you what – I type A LOT. (I’m doing it right now!) Anyway, I guess we’ll have to put cursive writing up there with reading the newspaper. I mean who does that anymore? I realize that we could do both, but that would mean giving up something else, and I see the two as similar enough that we should choose between the two.
